When the Clampetts inherited a castle in England on episode No. 169 "Jed Inherits a Castle," the program scouted out the huge, 600-year-old Penshurst Castle in Tunbridge, Kent built by Sir John de Pulteney for a set location. The historical castle had been the host to King Henry VIII in the early 1500s who dined with its owner and then had him beheaded. In 1969, the Clampetts visited the Missouri Ozarks to find Elly May a husband. starting with episode No.

225 "Back to the Hills." This time town of Branson was used as the backdrop for shooting the episodes including Silver Dollar City, (a 2,000 acre tourist development dedicated to the preservation of the arts and crafts of the Ozark Culture), the Silver Dollar City Hotel, a candle-making shop, a blacksmith shop and a woodcarver shop. Jed, Jethro, Elly May, Duke, and Granny Clampett Back in Hollywood, a replica of the Silver Dollar City Hotel was created on a sound stage. Since the Clampetts visit in the late 1960s, Branson, Missouri along with Silver Dollar City has become one of the Midwest's top tourist destinations. TRIVIA NOTE: The actual mansion (a.k.a. "The Kirkeby Mansion") used for establishing exterior shots on the series was built in 1933 on a sprawling 6.5 acre tract of land located at 750 Bel Air Road in Bel Air, California by millionaire Arnold Kirkeby, a Chicago hotel magnate.

The 20,000 square foot mansion featured a billiard room, marble-walled ballroom, a 150-foot waterfall and, of course, a "cee-ment pond." The Kirkeby mansion went up on the market in the mid 1980s with an asking price of $27 million dollars. It was purchased by TV executive named Jerrold Perrenchio in 1987 for $13.7 million. Just before THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES, the Kirkeby mansion was used as the location for the Jerry Lewis motion picture Cinderfella (1960). External Links The Kirkeby Mansion from “The Beverly Hillbillies” | IAMNOTASTALKER The Kirkeby Mansion from “The Beverly Hillbillies” Nov 13th, 2012 | By Lindsay | Category: TV Locations Hold on to your hats, my fellow stalkers, ‘cause today’s post is going to be a long one. A few weeks ago, my mom called me up to ask about one of the answers provided in the “Ask Chris” column from the September 2012 issue of Los Angeles Magazine .

In the column, an inquiring mind asked associate editor Chris Nichols for the location of the “crazy” abode featured in the 1960 movie Cinderfella. Chris informed him that the property used was none other than the Kirkeby Mansion in Bel-Air, which also stood in for the Clampett residence in The Beverly Hillbillies television series, but that most of the place had been demolished in 1986. Because the magazine had been mistaken in its reporting of locations in the past (you can read my post about the incorrectly identified Leave It To Beaver house here ), my mom wanted to know if the Kirkeby Mansion had, in fact, been torn down. And while I had, at the time, never stalked or done any research on the property, come to find out, Chris’ information was indeed erroneous. I am very happy to report that the Kirkeby Mansion is still currently standing at 750 Bel Air Road in Bel-Air in almost the exact same condition (the exterior anyway) it was in the 1960s when The Beverly Hillbillies was filmed. It is, sadly, just no longer visible from the street.

Construction on the Kirkeby Mansion, which began in 1933 and took five years to carry out, cost a whopping $2 million – and we’re talking 1930s money! The home was commissioned by a wealthy engineer named Lynn Atkinson. When it was completed, the French neoclassical Beaux Arts-style property featured ten bedrooms, twelve baths, 21,523 square feet of living space, a copper roof, walnut paneling, several Baccarat chandeliers, a 150-foot waterfall, gold-plated doorknobs and bathroom fixtures, a pipe organ, an orchestra stage, an elevator that ran seventy feet below ground, underground tunnels that led from the home to the pool area, and a landing pad for autogyros (yeah, I had to look that one up , too). Supposedly Atkinson had the place built for his wife, Berenice, as a surprise and when he first brought her there, under the ruse of attending a party, she took one look at the opulent manse and said, “Who would ever live in a house like this? It’s so grandiose.” Fail!

The Atkinsons never wound up living on the premises and the pad was eventually acquired by hotelier Arnold Kirkeby in 1945 for about $250,000. There are quite a few differing reports as to how and why Kirkeby came to own the mansion, including the rumor that Atkinson owed Kirkeby capital for a gambling debt, that Kirkeby had actually bankrolled the house for Atkinson and, when funds ran out, was given the keys, and that Atkinson had lost a bundle of money that he had borrowed from Kirkeby in order to invest in floating islands during World War II. Whatever the case may be, Arnold and his wife, Carlotta, acquired the manse in 1945 and, from that time on, the pad was known as the Kirkeby Mansion. In a fateful decision, Arnold decided to allow The Beverly Hillbillies to film at his estate at a rate of $500 a day because he apparently thought the show would be a dud. It ended up becoming a colossal hit, turning his house into a major tourist trap, but Arnold never lived to see that day.

He passed away in a plane crash on March 1, 1962, several months before the first episode ever aired. Carlotta continued to live in the mansion until her death in 1986, but apparently the countless fans of the series who stalked the abode drove her crazy. After Carlotta passed away, the residence was purchased by TV executive Jerry Perenchio for $13.7 million. And while Jerry did spend the next five years remodeling the interior of the property (which did not appear in The Beverly Hillbillies or Cinderfella), he did NOT demolish it and the exterior was left completely intact (except for the roof area). To deter the hoards of tourists who would stop by to stalk the mansion on a regular basis, Jerry also had the entrance gate moved to a different part of the property, rendering the place invisible from the street. Boo! While the Grim Cheaper and I were stalking the place, someone opened the gate and started speaking to us in a foreign language. I have no idea what the guy was saying, but the GC proceeded to snap away with his camera anyway. Nice work, honey!

Sadly though, even with the gate open, the only part of the property that was visible was a long driveway and the back of some sort of guard shack. The exterior of the Kirkeby Mansion was featured each week on The Beverly Hillbillies in establishing shots of the Clampett residence, which was said to be located at 518 Crestview Drive in Beverly Hills. In the second episode of the series, which was titled “Getting Settled”, the Clampetts were told that the manse was originally built for actor John Barrymore, Drew’s grandfather. The interior of the Clampett house was just a set, though, that was built at General Services Studios (now Hollywood Center Studios) where the series was lensed. The Clampett’s pool, ahem, ceee-ment pond also only existed at General Services Studios. According to the TV Acres website , the swimming pool set was 27 inches deep, cost $20,000 to construct, and took half a day to heat for filming.

As you can see in the aerial views below, which were featured in the Season 3 episode of The Beverly Hillbillies titled “Hedda Hopper’s Hollywood”, as compared to the current aerial views from Bing, the mansion looks almost exactly the same today as it did in 1964 when the episode was filmed. The grounds have changed a bit, although not as much as I had expected, and the gate, of course, moved, but otherwise the residence is completely recognizable as the The Beverly Hillbillies mansion. A poster named LifeinLA wrote a comment on a SitcomsOnline message board thread stating, “I have some good news for everyone who is wondering about the house. I was friends with the Kirkeby family and spent much time in the house before it was sold in 1985 to Jerry Perenchio, the owner of Univision, upon the death of Mrs. Kirkeby. Believe me, it was an amazing place. First of all, it is still there, in it’s entirety, but no longer visible from the street.

The only thing that the new owner did was remove the beautiful, solid copper roof, which appeared blue from the oxidation (and very beautiful), and make some much needed improvements to a home that was over sixty years old when he bought it. The kitchen was old, the bathrooms needed upgrading, the plumbing and electrical needed to be modernized. And, of course, he did redo all of the grounds, moved the tennis court and rebuilt the pool. He incorporated a new entrance, one that afforded more privacy, as this was always a problem for the Kirkeby family, what with such a high-profile home. He also bought back several neighboring homes that were once part of the estate, but sold off over the years and returned the property to it’s almost ten-acre original glory.” You can see the different roofs in the aerial views pictured below. The Kirkeby Mansion was also featured in the very beginning of the 1956 flick High Society as the residence where C.K. Dexter-Haven (Bing Crosby) lived. The roofline was changed for the filming, though, via, what I am guessing, was a matte painting.

The interior of C.K.’s house was, I believe, just a set and, as you can see below, looks nothing at all like the interior of the Clampett residence. In the 1960 flick Cinderfella, the Kirkeby Mansion was where Cinderfella (Jerry Lewis) lived with his Wicked Stepmother (Judith Anderson) and her two sons, Maximilian (Henry Silva) and Rupert (Robert Hutton). The interior of the Cinderfella mansion was also, I believe, just a set and, again, looks nothing like either the Clampett residence or C.K.’s residence from High Society. In the 1987 comedy Disorderlies, the Kirkeby mansion was where Winslow Lowry (Anthony Geary) lived with his ailing uncle, Albert Dennison (Pretty Woman’s Ralph Bellamy). Unlike the previous productions filmed at the estate, the real life interior of the Kirkeby Mansion was actually used in Disorderlies. The manse was also featured in 1987’s Over the Top as the home of Jason Cutler (Robert Loggia), although the front door area and balcony were changed a bit for the filming . . . . . .

due to the fact that in one scene Lincoln Hawk (Sylvester Stallone) drives his truck into the place, destroying it. The interior of the manse also appeared in Over the Top and, as you can see below, the entrance hallway, tile flooring, staircase, and roped-staircase railing match perfectly to what appeared in Disorderlies. Some fabulous current aerial views of the Kirkeby Mansion were shown in a REP Interactive clip about the most expensive homes in the world. You can watch that clip by clicking below.

Until next time, Happy Stalking! Stalk It: The Kirkeby Mansion from The Beverly Hillbillies television series is located at 750 Bel Air Road in Bel-Air . The front entrance to the home is now located around the corner at 875 Nimes Road , but, sadly, no part of the property is visible from the street.

50 great shows and 50 great theme songs 1950's-1960's Television September 26, 1962 - September 7, 1971 CBS Situation Comedy Starring... Buddy Ebsen, Irene Ryan, Donna Douglas, Max Baer, Raymond Bailey, Nancy Kulp, and Bea Benaderet 518 Crestview Drive, Beverly Hills, California, the residense of the Clampett family: Jed, a widow mountaineer; his beautiful unmarried daughter, Elly May; his mother-in-law, Daisy "Granny" Moses; and his dumb nephew, Jethro Bodine - a simple backwoods family who became millionaires when oil was discovered on their property. The Beverly Hillbillies was one the most popular shows of the sixties. They were just simple country folk who at first didn't know what a telephone was.

Beverly Hillbillies, The Beverly Hillbillies, The 1 9 6 2 - 1 9 7 1 (USA) 274 x 30 minute episodes One of the most durable television sitcoms, and one of the most successful of the popular rural comedies at CBS during the 1960s, The Beverly Hillbillies has withstood critical disdain and become a favourite with viewers in reruns. The Beverly Hillbillies is the old story of city slicker versus country bumpkin, of education versus wisdom; and though the laughs are at the Hillbillies' expense, in the end, they almost always come out on top despite their lack of sophistication. This simple account of simple country folk at odds with city folk hit a nerve in the country and was reflected in a number of other shows of the era, including fellow Paul Henning productions Petticoat Junction and Green Acres . The Beverly Hillbillies premiered to a critical blasting and yet within a few weeks was at the top of the ratings and remained popular for the length of its run. In the theme song we learn the story of Jed Clampett (Buddy Ebsen), a mountain widower.

One day, while hunting for food, Jed comes across some "bubbling crude" on his land: "Oil, that is, black gold, Texas tea." Jed sells the rights to his oil to the OK Oil Company and becomes an instant millionaire. He is advised to move from the hills and so he goes off to a luxurious thirty-two room mansion at 518 Crestview Drive in Beverly Hills, CA, to live the high life. Along with him he takes his mother-in-law, Granny (Irene Ryan); his daughter, Elly May (Donna Douglas); and his nephew, Jethro Bodine (Max Baer, Jr.). In California, Jed's money is kept at the Commerce Bank, and along with the bank comes its president, Milburne Drysdale (Raymond Bailey), and his plain but smart assistant, Jane Hathaway (Nancy Kulp). To keep a closer eye on his largest depositor, Drysdale arranges for the Clampetts to move into the mansion next to his house in Beverly Hills.

Drysdale is obsessed with the fear that the family will move back to the hills along with their money, and he will do practically anything to assuage them and help them feel comfortable in their new home. This simple premise remains essentially unchanged through the bulk of the show's run, with most of the interactions involving the Clampetts and the Drysdale/Hathaway team - and occasionally Drysdale's snobby wife. Unfortunately, the Clampett's attempt to live the life of millionaires is doomed from the very start because; a) they still yearn for Hicksville, and, b) they may have 25 million dollars but they do not have a clue what to do with it. Granny even has trouble telling the TV set from the washing machine . . . City life is not difficult for the rube man-child Jethro, who fancies himself a playboy or secret agent or movie producer and wants to keep his "hick" family from making him look bad.

Elly May (pictured at right) is the pretty tomboy who seems content to live in the city as long as she has her "critters." But crusty old Granny is not happy here, where she has lost her stature in society and she can no longer be the doctor, matchmaker, and keeper of wisdom. Most of the characters in The Beverly Hillbillies are caricatures and stereotypes of rich and poor. The only real exception is Jed Clampett, who alone seems to appreciate both sides. The humour in this show comes from many sources. Initially, the jokes and obvious humour come at the expense of the Hillbillies. The ragged clothes, the fascination with even the most ordinary aspects of everyday life (they assume the billiard table is for formal dining and that the cues are for reaching across the table), and odd customs and ideas about high society based on silent movies that reached their hometown. But just as funny are the city folk, like Mr Drysdale and his transparent efforts to get them to stay, or Miss Jane and her proper and humorous look. The Beverly Hillbillies is at its best in showing how foolish modern-day life looks through the eyes of the transplanted country folk.

Jed is the centre and the speaker, pointing out those things that seem to not make sense and, upon reflection, we can often agree. While this show is no work of high art or philosophy, and the story lines and situations are often ludicrous and sometimes downright foolish, it does an excellent job of entertaining with a basic backdrop and characters for thirty minutes. Anxious to capitalise on their success, CBS commissioned two other rustic sitcom spin-offs, Petticoat Junction and Green Acres . Critics, of course, hated all three shows, and, because it was the first, reserved their strongest vitriol for The Beverly Hillbillies. The public was having none of it: they loved the show and watched it in record numbers. Remarkably, the eight most-watched half-hours in the history of US television are all Beverly Hillbillies episodes. It's a safe bet, though, that a good proportion of the viewing audience were young males tuning in to catch an eyeful of blonde bombshell, Elly May Clampett in the tightest jeans around . . . In the weeks following the assassination of President Kennedy , this show had four of its highest rated shows, and some of the highest rated shows of all time.

But in 1971 CBS pulled the plug - and not just on this show but on Petticoat Junction and Green Acres too. All may have been past their prime but audience ratings remained high, and the network's only valid reason for cancelling was a commercial one: polls indicated that the shows were attracting the wrong type of viewers for the advertisers. So that was that until ten years later, when three of the original cast (Ebsen, Douglas and Kulp) came together for a witless two-hour reunion special, The Beverly Hillbillies Solve The Energy Crisis, screened by CBS on 6 October 1981. Ray Young replaced Max Baer Jr to play Jethro while Irene Ryan (Granny) had died in 1973 and Raymond Bailey (Milburn Drysdale) in 1980. Harriet MacGibbon (Margaret Drysdale) was around 75 years old by this time and was not cast.

Twelve years further on again, in 1993, 20th Century-Fox made a feature film of The Beverly Hillbillies (directed by Penelope Spheeris, with Jim Varney as Jed Clampett) that also failed to hit the mark, with only Lily Tomlin (cast as Miss Hathaway) outstanding. That same year (on 24 May 1993), CBS presented The Legend Of The Beverly Hillbillies, featuring surviving members of the original cast linking old clips and explaining what happened to the Clampetts and their acquaintances since it ended. Donna Douglas died in January 2015, aged 81. The cause of death was pancreatic cancer. TRIVIA Actress Sharon Tate , later to be infamously murdered by the Manson Family , appeared in The Beverly Hillbillies as Janet Trego (Mr Dysdale's secretary). Max Baer appeared in drag as Jethro's sister (Jethrine) on the show. Paul Henning (the creator of the series) had his 18-year-ol daughter Linda dub Jethrine's voice.

The real mansion used for exterior establishing shots in the series was also the location for the 1960 Jerry Lewis movie Cinderfella . The house (which is actually in Bel-Aire, not Beverly Hills) was owned by Mrs Arnold Kirkeby, widow of a hotel magnate. Her favourite charity received a donation in exchange for its use in some drive-up shots and occasional establishing views. All the other exterior scenes used a recreated set piece. Jed Clampett The Ballad of Jed Clampett Come and listen to my story 'bout a man named Jed, A poor mountaineer, barely kept his family fed, And then one day he was shootin' at some food, And up through the ground came a-bubblin' crude.

Oil that is, black gold, Texas tea.” Poor but wise Jed Clampett (Buddy Ebsen) got rich quick. He originally got $25 million but by the last season the Clampett fortune had swelled to $95 million.

This didn’t sit well with society maven, Mrs. Drydale (Harriet E.

Click on the photos above to see larger versions of the images If the scenery in some of those old TV Westerns such as "THE RIFLEMAN" and "HAVE GUN WILL TRAVEL" looks alike to you, that may be because many of them were shot in the same place: a mock western town inside the Paramount Ranch (at 1813 Cornell Road, Agoura). It's now a part of the Malibu Creek State Park, and is open to the public. Recently, they filmed the TV series "DR. QUINN, MEDICINE WOMAN" at the ranch. Other western TV series, such as some episodes of "THE LONE RANGER" and "HOPALONG CASSIDY," (as well as the 1995 movie "WILD BILL") were filmed at Melody Ranch Motion Picture Studio, at 24715 Oak Creek Avenue, in Newhall, CA (out near Magic Mountain.) You can visit the ranch each March during the annual Cowboy Poetry and Music Festival. Remember Ozzie & Harriet and Ricky Nelson?

Well, in their old TV sitcom, the Nelsons lived at the fictitious address of the 822 Sycamore Road. But in reality, you can find that house from "THE ADVENTURES OF OZZIE & HARRIET SHOW" at 1822 Camino Palmero Drive, in Hollywood. It was the Nelson's family's actual home. That short, hilly street is located above Hollywood Boulevard, half a mile east of Grauman's Chinese Theatre. Jed & Granny Clampett were supposed to live at the fictional address of 518 Crestview Drive in Beverly Hills. But in fact, the huge mansion that you saw each week on TV's original "THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES" is located at 750 Bel Air Road, in nearby Bel Air. Alas, the current owner has drastically remodeled the estate, so you won't recognize the old place. The mansion was originally built in 1935 by millionaire Lynn Atkinson, but his wife thought it was too ostentatious, and refused to live there!

If you're old enough (or if you're just a fan of classic reruns), you may remember the TV series "77 SUNSET STRIP," and its neighbor, "Dino's Lodge." Well, Dino's Lodge is gone, but the real address of the old Lodge was 8524 Sunset Boulevard - right on the Strip . It is now home to the Tiffany Theatre. "She took her daddy's car, and she cruised to the hamburger stand, now. Seems she forgot all about the library, like she told her Old Man, now. And with the radio blasting, she goes cruising just as fast as she can, now. And she'll have fun, fun, fun, 'till her daddy takes the T-Bird away!" * (*© Capitol Records, Inc.) Remember those lyrics to the Beach Boys' song, "FUN FUN FUN" ? Well, the Beach Boys grew up in Hawthorne, CA., and the "hamburger stand" mentioned in that song was actually a Foster's Freeze (which they nicknamed "Frostie's"). It seems that Brian Wilson spotted a friend driving by in her daddy's T-Bird...

This Foster's Freeze is located at 11969 Hawthorne Blvd. (just north of 120th Street), in Hawthorne. It's on the west side of that street, just across from the Hawthorne Plaza Mall. It's still open for business. * While in the Hawthorne area, you can also see a Beach Boys monument that was erected nearby, on the former site of the Wilson's family home, where the Beach Boys wrote and recorded many of their hit songs. * Locations marked by an asterisk (*) may be located in areas with high crime rates.
